What if leaders could filter out all data noise in their business and focus solely on the information they need right when they need it? ConverSight, born from the vision of co-founders Ganesh Gandhieswaran and Gopinath Jaganmohan, offers just that with their generative AI-powered analytics platform. It transcends traditional dashboards by converting disorganized data into meaningful business insights that leaders can easily use. This innovative conversational insight empowers leaders to make faster, more confident decisions. Located in the HqO Innovation Hub at 16 Tech, ConverSight thrives, drawing from a nexus of innovation inspiration and resources for the rapidly growing startup.
The company’s journey began in a garage in 2017 with a vision to democratize business analytics. “Not everybody can just hire data analysts or data scientists, Gandhieswaran points out. ConverSight’s central data platform, with its AI assistant, Athena, gives real-time insights and analytics across business operations, from supply chains to sales, without the need for in-depth data expertise. However, a garage wasn’t the space of innovation the growing company needed to bring their product to a larger market. “As a startup company, every year we are doubling. My space should grow with me,” he says. In 2022, the company relocated to 16 Tech. Gandhieswaran says that the move has positively contributed to the company by serving as a space that encourages creativity and collaboration for his 30-person team.
“Anyone who comes to ConverSight, our current employees or anybody, loves our space. I think it’s the openness—you feel unlimited,” Gandhieswaran says. The transition to 16 Tech was fundamentally about fostering inspiration. “As a growing company, we need to be very creative and collaborative. So our space must also be creative and collaborative; that’s important,” Gandhieswaran says. Since relocating to 16 Tech, ConverSight has doubled its customer base and expanded into global markets. Last year’s $9 million Series A funding has propelled further product enhancements, including a state-of-the-art user interface and the introduction of an AI workbench, a marketplace, and GPT-powered modeling capabilities. Looking ahead, Gandhieswaran and his team are driving forward with new technologies and product advancements, confident that 16 Tech offers the ideal environment for groundbreaking work. “We’ve been building ChatGPT for business data analytics right here,” he says, “building next-gen technology and empowering customers all over the world from 16 Tech.”
